Omma est décrit comme un petit endroit chaleureux offrant de vraies saveurs coréennes dans une ambiance intime. Des plats comme les calamars frits et le bibimbap sont mis en valeur, les calamars frits étant particulièrement tendres et le bibimbap au boeuf apprécié pour sa profondeur et la croûte de riz croustillante lorsque l'oeuf est mélangé. La pancake de fruits de mer est un favori pour sa croustillance et sa fraîcheur, tandis que le bouillon de boeuf est délicieux. Le menu propose également des plats à base de tofu et d'autres options réconfortantes, faciles à partager. Le service est généralement décrit comme chaleureux et efficace, même si certains avis signalent que l'espace peut être frais et que les réservations sont recommandées en raison de la fréquentation. En raison de sa petite taille, l'établissement semble intime et apprécié, et de nombreux convives envisagent d'y revenir ou de le conseiller à leurs proches. Dans l'ensemble, les impressions sont positives sur les saveurs et l'ambiance, avec une authenticité coréenne fortement ressentie.
Great little place near the place du arts, great service, good food & cosy atmosphere. Not completely Korean Korean but very close & for an even more friendly price. I recommend. Only thing its so small that every time the doors open, cold wind enters the establishment
Very good experience at Omma! It’s a really small restaurant, so it’s highly recommended to reserve a few before!
The waitresses were all super nice, & the food came in really quickly! The food was pretty good, but it wasn’t an out of this world experience. Prices are also pretty reasonable. It’s definitely worth trying though!
This is a very cute restaurant. Decor is lovely, & I was so hoping to be able to give it a higher score.
The waitress was lovely. She was alone & had a lot to do, but she was great...except for one major error which I will get to shortly.
Started with the Pajun (sea food pancake appetizer). It was fantastic. Amazing flavor & the sauce was perfect. A fantastic start.
The typical starter complimentary salads were great bites, & more would have been easily welcomed.
We ordered a side of their house-made Kimchi. Solid, as you'd expect, very good.
We ordered the beef bibimbap. It was very bland. We only realized AFTER our meal (& my wife asked me not to complain about the lack of flavor during the meal), that other tables were getting their order with a sauce. It came with a sauce; she forgot the sauce. After the meal she apologized...but you'd think that when you render a dish that bad with a huge error, you do 'something' to make good or compensate (hell, even comp the 4$ side order of Kimchi, something). This was not done.
The Dak chicken was general tao-ish. Great veggies, crisp chicken, but kind of underwhelming. Not bad, but would not order again.
Luckily, we had the idea to end out meal with a second appetizer, the chicken wings. Most certainly the best for last. I'd have that again...though unlkely to go back.
2 appetizers, 2 mains, one side, 3 cocktails, tax, tip, $144.
Generally, that is an okay price for a meal in downtown Montreal, but the overal quality & size of portions....I would have expected that to be an $80-$90 meal.
Would I go back? Probably not...simple Korean done right is in abundance in our city & I'd try elsewhere. If I HAD to go back? The seafood pancake & chicken wings could be ordered with ease.
If you are expecting actual Korean food, this is not the place you’d choose.
First of all it’s VERY localised. I’ve tried other westernised Korean restaurants before & I loved them but, not this place. I was worried of ppl who will try korean food for the first time with this place & getting wrong interpretation.

The food was nothing surprising, we tried the pajun since it was a waitress' recommendation & not the best that we tried before, the fried shrimps were oily & they could be better, & we took as main dish the bibimbap & we were surprised & how warm was the dish, it was blazing hot, we wait for more than 10 minutes & it still was difficult to eat, so we couldn't enjoy the flavors. We were disappointed & not the best experience.
Je recommande ce restaurant.
En le voyant de l'extérieur je pensais que cela ne serait pas terrible mais il en avalait la peine.
Petit aspect négatif, j'ai trouvé les portions un peu petite & le tartare n'était pas vraiment terrible. On aurait dis une bouillie de viande martyrisée flanquée dans un pot.
Mais le service était très profesionel & non envahissant.
